4 Earlier writing prophets

5 Later writing prophets

6 Ezekiel 2 nd deportation, 597 BC; about 25 years old Began ministry 5 years later; about 6 years before fall of Jerusalem Vision of the Sovereignty of God 1-3 Message: God is in control; the key message is that they may know that I am LORD (70 times) Who is the they? Both Israel and the Gentile nations (the world)

7 How are they to know? Judgments on Israel Eze 4-24 Judgments on the Gentile nations Eze Preservation and restoration of Israel Eze 40-48

8 Messages of the 3 visions Vision 1 (1-3) God s transcendent glory; God overrules in sovereign government Vision 2 (8-11) God intervenes in judgment; glory departs Vision 3 (40-48) God restores in grace; glory returns

9 That they may know I am LORD God is more powerful than themost powerful nations of the world God is faithful and will restore Israel Powers of the world: Egypt ( BC) Assyria ( BC) Babylon ( BC) Medes/Persia ( BC) Greece ( BC)

10 That they may know I am LORD God broke the power of Babylon and restored Israel as prophesized God gives the kingdom of men to whom He wishes

11 God is King over Babylon God brought them back 70 years of servitude (Jer 29:10-14) 70 years of desolations in Jerusalem (Jer 25:1; 2 Chr 36:2; Dan 9:1-2; Zech 1:12) From the first exile (605 BC) to proclamation of Cyrus (536 BC) From Nebuchadnezzar setting himself up against Jerusalem (589 BC; Eze 24:1-2; 2 Kings 25:1; Jer 52:4) to 24 th Chisleh [9 th month], 520 BC; (Hag 2:18) Cyrus cylinder

12 God is sovereign over nations (Dan 2, 7) Daniel 2 Daniel 7 so that the living may know that the Most High is sovereign over the kingdoms of men and gives them to anyone he wishes and sets over them the lowliest of men. Dan 4:17 Rock will smash at the feet of iron and clay. Dan 2:34 Message sent to peoples, and men of every language, who live in all the world Dan 4:1 Son of Man given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations, and men of every language worshiped him. Dan 7:14

13 History of Israel pre-written in Dan 11 Daniel 11:2-35 covers history concerning Israel, Syria and Egypt from Alexander (333 BC) to the desecration of the temple (168 BC) 11:6 Some years later, an alliance will be formed between the king of the north and the king of the south. The daughter (Berenice) of the king of the south (Ptolemy Philadephus) will be given in marriage to the king of the north (Antiochus Theos) to secure the alliance,. 11:21 - The next to come to power will be a despicable man (Antiochus Epiphanes, 175 BC) who is not directly in line for royal succession. But he will slip in when least expected and take over the kingdom by flattery and intrigue. 11:29f Then at the appointed time he will once again invade the south (Egypt), but this time the result will be different. For warships from western coastlands (Rome) will scare him off, and he will withdraw and return home. But he will vent his anger against the people of the holy covenant. His army will take over the Temple fortress, polluting the sanctuary, putting a stop to the daily sacrifices, and set up the sacrilegious object that causes desecration.

14 God is faithful A remnant will return and be restored The Messiah will come and lead the nation Salvation will be extended to the Gentiles In that day the remnant of Israel, the survivors of the house of Jacob, will no longer rely on him who struck them down but will truly rely on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will return to the Mighty God. Is 10:20-21 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. Is 53:5 In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring up for David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. Jer 33:15 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this. Is 9:6-7 Indeed He says, It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob, And to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also give You as a light to the Gentiles, That You should be My salvation to the ends of the earth. Is 49:6

15 Chronicler s history Second history Chronicles, Ezra-Nehemiah Post-exilic

16 What Chronicler s history addresses The post-exilic crisis of faith The temple that they built was nothing like Solomon s temple disappointment in view of Deut 30 There was no abundance and no prosperity Israel was not a worldwide kingdom

17 Return from exile Cyrus cylinder 536 BC 80 year gap 456 BC 445 BC 400 BC Return under Zerubabbel (decree of Cyrus) Esther Return under Ezra (decree of Artaxerxes) Ezra 1-6 Ezra year gap 20 years Haggai (520 BC) Zechariah Nehemiah rebuilds Jerusalem Nehemiah Malachi

18 How the writings fit into the story Gathered after the exile into final literary form Reached final form later than Torah and the Prophets Writings functioned as resources for a community living through difficult times during post-exilic days

19 Writings how to remain faithful Psalms expressions of covenant commitment and guides worship Proverbs how live according to God s order Ecclesiastes and Job how to navigate through maze of life, meaning of life, suffering and remain faithful Esther and Ruth seeing God s sovereign providence through the eyes of faith (even when they didn t know it; even when they were under foreign powers)

20 Malachi Idolatry cured Presumptuous Righteousness and justice not established Book of remembrance of a remnant Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the land with a decree of utter destruction. Malachi 4:5-6 (end of OT)

23 Question 1. God never leaves His people without hope. God is faithful. God is always ready to restore, whenever we are ready to return. What are you hoping that God will restore for you? Pray for one another. 2. There is a cross in the way to every crown that is worth wearing. Baxter What challenges are you experiencing in serving God? Pray for strength and grace for the task. 3. The people in Malachi s days were careless in their living and callous in their relationship with God. What does that look like today for Christians? How can we guard against this?
